I have a folder of GameCube hacking tools (mostly ones you shared some time back). I'd like to share the downloads. Should I?

Ok, but don't upload the files directly on this site. I'm not sure about the File Storage system yet, and it's very limited. You can use another site to upload and you can bring that link here.

It's a Python script (I think 2.7 or something), so you need to install Python to use it. You also use some of these tools with the command line, or a batch file. (I make some batch files to easily run these programs.)
You need to run it with the Python setup to use it.

[~Scary Basher~]

Well I'm out of luck. I think I have python. But no idea how to use it in a batch file.

I can help you with that. I can also just give you my batch file. (Also, .bat files are really easy. They are a main windows thing since the DOS days, and can be made in Notepad really easily, with no external programs to install.)
processthing.bat (182 B)
(Also, I name things that come off the top of my head, and it is usually 8-year-old toilet humor, or random stuff. This uses python 3.4 (My bad for telling the wrong version))

[~Scary Basher~]

I know how to make batch files. I just didn't know the python setup. Thanks dude.

Use TGA2BTI, There are some png bindings for it on K64 IIRC, in some of the archived SMG forums.

[spacecats]

My suggestion would be use the png version anthe made here (http://kuribo64.net/board/thread.php?id=1599), then you can just use png and dont have to worry about this stuff.
